Special investigation report from Yokohama

"Terrorist?" Hong Yao repeated suspiciously.She didn't find it too surprising at first, Yokohama, it's not unusual.

However, the terrorist that Akutagawa Gin could specifically mention to her probably has something to do with what Gin is busy with now. The "combination" went bankrupt, and the staggering amount of investment it had laid out in the Kanagawa area before the attack on Yokohama was also in vain.Those industries were divided up by people from different channels. Hongyao was worried that some of them would become shelters for the retrograde army. In the past few days, Yin Akutagawa had been providing intelligence support, and the swordsmen were investigating one by one.

So as soon as Yin mentioned this topic, Hong Yao subconsciously thought of the retrograde army: "Are they also planning to change history?"

Akutagawa Gin hesitated for a moment: "It's hard to say."

"Information shows that this matter is related to the bell tower attendants." This is an organization that has cooperated with the "combination", and it is precisely because of this that Akutagawa Yin noticed it from the massive amount of information and told Hong Yao immediately , "A certain weapon with supernatural powers that can cause large-scale damage leaked out and was mastered by terrorists. The clock tower attendants were secretly wanted, but nothing happened."

"So," Hong Yao pondered, "what is that terrorist going to do?"

Regardless of the outflow of weapons of this level, it can only show that the bell tower attendant is convinced that this matter will not affect the interests of the country.

— That is to say, this terrorist has very clear demands that have nothing to do with Europe.Since Yinhui specifically told her, then...

"Book?"

A book like a wishing tree that can be realized by writing it. This was the purpose of the "combination" and the retrograde army, and it was the only reason that Hong Yao could think of to go to war.

"Although it cannot be confirmed, there is ample evidence that terrorists are moving to Yokohama. I think it is very likely."

Hong Yao was silent for a moment: "It's really... a troubled place."

At this point in the conversation, Hong Yao almost guessed what Akutagawa Yin really wanted to say.

"You judge that this matter may have the involvement of Dark Fallen Sword."

"Yes." Akutagawa Yin only knew that Hongyao cared about the dark sword, but he didn't know why she cared so much, so he said his judgment very frankly, "On the way of the terrorists' escape, we detected Several small time-space fluctuations. Because they are not at the alert level, they were not reported, and now it seems that they are similar to the time-space fluctuations when the retrograde army passed by."

The retrograde army must not appear in front of people, so it can only be the dark sword thrown into the retrograde army camp.No matter where you look at this speculation, there is no problem, but Hong Yao instinctively sensed a slight violation.

"Follow up," she said at last. "Identify the terrorist first."

"HG Wells."

Contrary to Akutagawa Yin's expectation, it is quite easy to trace the identity of the terrorist.Of course, one of the reasons is that this person is so famous.Wells, who has the same name as a science fiction writer in the red medicine world, is a notorious international wanted criminal in this world.

This terrorist who has been active since the war has been charged with crimes from different governments and for different reasons.Akutagawa Gin collected some by hand, and flipped through the red medicine. Apart from lamenting the unrest in this world, there was only one thought left:

If this resume was used to threaten the officials of the intelligence system at that time, maybe he would be willing to wash two more Dazai-level resumes.

……No.Hong Yao suddenly remembered something, and looked back at those news bulletins.

"I think there are some strange things about this person." Akutagawa Silver synchronously expressed her thoughts, "For example, although these terrorist attacks were a sensation, they did not cause much damage in fact. The thunder was loud, but the rain was little .”

Red Yao nodded: "I agree with your thoughts. A person who has the ability to plan, organize and launch so many large-scale operations should not be satisfied with this level of destruction."

If that's the case...it's not surprising that he is accompanied by Dark Fallen Sword.

"Do you know what kind of power this Wells has?"

Akutagawa Gin shook his head: "The arrests in various countries have never been mentioned, and it is very likely that they are ordinary people."

"No." Hong Yao was quite sure.Judging from the relationship between the two worlds, it is almost impossible for such a famous writer to be a person with no different abilities—except for Edogawa Ranpo—and thinking about Wells’ most famous works, his ability is likely to be related to time. related.

...is a bit tricky.

Under the rules of the world, it doesn't matter even if there are supernatural abilities related to time, the rules will restrict him from affecting the stability of the entire world.But if Wells used this ability to help the retrograde army, it would be another concept. The retrograde army’s ability to exploit time and space is far stronger than ordinary superpowers, and it is also more threatening. If you travel through time and space in a "reasonable" way, it is very easy It is easy to cause catastrophe without the government noticing.

If this Wells still holds a weapon of mass destruction with a different ability, the danger will be even higher.

"Can you lock the current location of Wells?"

Akutagawa Yin shook his head regretfully: "He is British, and he was secretly wanted by the clock tower attendants and left the country. He was also wanted by the European government while he was living in Europe. There are no frontal photos of it. As for the location... now it can only be confirmed that it is in the open sea."

This area is too large.

It was not feasible to start from the whereabouts of Wells, so Hong Yao could only go back to trace the movement of the marching army.Without the help of the "combination" to cover them up, this group of retrograde troops who couldn't even get out of the door was quickly found out of their strongholds one by one.

Out of the idea of ​​"maybe I can see Yingmaru and the others again", Koyaku personally led the team and directed several small battles.However, there were only the remnants of the retrograde army in the stronghold, and she could no longer find the shadow of the dark sword.After several battles, she failed to get any clues about the Dark Fallen Sword, and the retrograde army was wiped out in sevens and eighties.

Someone couldn't sit still.

A, a person who thought he was the victor of the "Moby Dick Incident" but didn't get any benefits, after seeing Hong Yao led people out several times and overturned several retrograde army strongholds, he finally couldn't sit still.

In his understanding, although there have been conflicts, he has reached a cooperation with Hongyao.The retrograde army flirted with Fitzgerald while throwing himself under his command. If you don't want such an ally, you don't want it.Anyway, they didn't listen to him, and Hong Yao's move was not a problem at all in A's view.

But also the victor of the "combination", Hong Yao wiped out her enemies, and the Armed Detective Agency gained a high reputation, but he didn't get any benefits - this not only made him uncomfortable, but also made him a little angry .Since everyone has contributed, how can Red Medicine and the Armed Detective Agency leave him alone?

So he thought for a long time, and finally thought of someone.

Yumeno Hisaku.

Although Hongyao and Osamu Dazai, who planned the entire operation, knew well that Yumeno Hisaku, who possessed spiritual power, would never return it to the port mafia, but at the top of the port mafia—at least cadre A— In his eyes, Hongyao took Yumeno Kusaku away just because this boy caused social turmoil in Yokohama.Out of maintenance of order and dissatisfaction with Yumeno Hisaku's attack on her, it is normal for her to take this psychic power user away.

But so many days have passed, even if everyone thought so at the time, seeing that the red medicine has not been returned to Yumeno Kusaku until now, most smart people can figure out the meaning of not paying back.However, A doesn't think so, or rather, he can see that Hongyao has no intention of returning Kusaku Yumeno, but after all, he is a person with spiritual powers. Whether he wants it or not is one thing, and whether he can want it is another time thing.

He is also a member of the port mafia, and morally speaking, he has the right to negotiate with Hongyao about the ownership of Yumeno Hisaku.That little devil's ability is really useful, as for the others... what can be more suitable for controlling this dangerous ability than "Madness of the Jewel King"?

With an uncontrollable superpower and him in a high position, A feels that he knows how to choose the red medicine.

So on this day, Hong Yao wiped out the last known retrograde army, and when he returned with the swordsmen, he saw guests coming at the door.It was a tall, blond young man with a European and American appearance, but he was somewhat similar to Zhong Yuan Zhong.

Seeing her come back, the young man who was wandering in front of the shrine came striding forward.From the way he looks at people to the way he walks, the words "well-trained" are written all over his body. Of course, the swordsmen can't let people of unknown origin get close to Hongyao like this, and Hasebe will take a step forward and stop him. :"what you up to?"

The man stopped and glanced at him, then looked past him at Hong Yao: "Miss Hong Yao, I am Paul Verlaine. On behalf of the Port Mafia, please tell me."

As he spoke, he handed over an invitation card.Hasebe glanced at the red medicine, saw that she acquiesced, and reached out to take it.Hong Yao didn't go to get it, but looked at Verlaine: "Your Excellency is French? I don't remember such a face in the port Mafia."

"Because of some reasons in the past, although I was one of the top five cadres, I didn't go out very much," Verlaine explained, "I'm laughing."

Hong Yao let out an "oh", probably understanding his reason for coming.Yumeno Hisaku, besides him, she has nothing to do with the port mafia.

Mori Ogai sent Verlaine here because he really wanted to get Yumeno Hisaku back.

He knew that Yumeno Hisaku couldn't make any trouble with Hongyao, so he wasn't in a hurry to get him back at first.Anyway, sooner or later, the red medicine will have to go, supernatural powers are basically useless to her, and the tangible benefits that can be taken away are more important to her. The "combination" is gone, and the port mafia still has a lot of messes to clean up. The redemption of Q can be put aside first.

Unexpectedly, with this release, A's mind was freed.

The danger level of A is not the same as that of red medicine.The red medicine is that the objective strength is there, but the subjective intention is not provocative. Mori Ogai is wary of her because she is not allowed to snore on the side of the couch; A is...the objective strength is not rebellious, but I can always come up with something very magical The tricks in vain to achieve the goal. Q is useless in the place of the red medicine, and her own strength is not lacking in the icing on the cake; but in the place of A, it is a time bomb that will explode at an unknown time.

So as soon as he received the news that A was planning to win over Q, Mori Ogai ordered a cadre to come to his door.It is not necessary to bring Q back, as long as he arrives earlier than A, Hong Yao will naturally understand what Mori Ogai means.

Of course, if it weren't for the special identity of Hong Yao, Mori Ogai would never have thought of pulling out this cadre who had been bored underground for six years.Zhongyuan Zhong also vaguely mentioned that Hong Yao looked at him differently because of the god Huangbatu—she seemed to believe that his supernatural power was related to that legendary god.

As a gentle leader, Mori Ogai certainly does not intend to force Nakahara Chuya to play the emotional card to return Q.He thought about it, and felt that since Mr. Zhongye could do it, then Verlaine, who was once known as the "God of Shepherd" and even had the same supernatural ability as Zhongye in Zhongyuan, could do it too.So he personally went to the underground training ground in the port Mafia, and handed over this task to Verlaine.

——The idea is very good, but on the side of Hongyao...she didn't realize that Verlaine was not human either.From her point of view, Verlaine's aura was indeed a bit strange, but in terms of intensity, it was far worse than that of Central Plains.Even the Fusangshen, who are at the bottom of the eight hundred gods, have much more divinity than Verlaine.

So she teased casually: "I thought your leader would send Mr. Zhongye here."

Speaking of Chuya in the Central Plains, Verlaine's serious expression seemed to soften for a moment: "I am Chuya's elder brother."

In other words, the sense of disobedience in his breath has also been explained.Although the Central Plains didn't have the ability to protect his family members, he was the Son of God after all, and the long-term relationship probably gave Verlaine a little breath.

She didn't think much about it at all, and nodded slightly to Verlaine in a businesslike manner: "I will attend the appointment."

I have to go to the appointment, Yumeno Hisaku... Of course I won't return it.

The author has something to say:

I brought the 55min plot here ahead of time, mainly because I didn’t know when it happened when I conceived it... Later, a friend told me that it was after ten volumes orz

do not mind the details.
